clamp testing in the field

the more people talk, the more clamping looks good. why dont we use this post for testing.

As we competitors start buying clamps, mabey we can post our current class now and our clamped power and mabey we can all understand better what we are looking at. Me being kinda ignorant on clamps, i think I want to learn more before i try to argue against it.

well 54.8/37= 2027 154.4
61.5/42= 2583 155.4
then after 10 burps and no charge... i hate this clamp amp bull Dung Pile kept falling off

could you educate me a little on the math to use a clamp?

voltage X current = Watts

current/volts=impedanc rise

so in other word take ur ac vol x ur amperage and there u go

thank you

what kind of clamp? any in particular? recommend any brands?

i use fluke the newer the better

i use a fluke ddm and a craftsman clamp that has been tested against the fuke clamp and is spot on

autozone has some good c clamps that I used to do my brakes will that work?

I use a craftsman clamp meter and voltmeter. It's a little slow but after 3 seconds, you can get a steady number on both

Fluke is the best, no doubt... but I'm a poor grad student, and this works well enough.

~45V and ~25A, is 1100w @ 1.8 ohm (minimal clipping)

hey man sumn wrong with ur sub

i kno... must be broken or something. When joo throw 20 Hz at it, the sub xplods.

I'll get new ones soon tho

i got a clamp. but i got no amps you see.
